Attorney General Eric Holder arrives on a military aircraft Wednesday at Lambert-St. Louis International Airport in St. Louis. Holder was in Ferguson,
Mo., on Wednesday to oversee the federal governmentâ s investigation into the shooting of 18-year-old Michael Brown.

ST. LOUIS - Attorney General Eric Holder sought Wednesday to reassure the people of Ferguson about the investigation into
Michael Brown's death and said he understands why many black Americans do not trust police, recalling how he was repeatedly
stopped by officers who seemed to target him because of his race.

Holder made the remarks during a visit to the St. Louis suburb that has endured more than a week of unrest fueled by the fatal
shooting of the black 18-year-old by a white officer. The Obama administration intended the trip to underscore its commitment
to civil rights in general and the Ferguson case in particular.

The attorney general remembered how he was stopped twice on the New Jersey Turnpike and accused of speeding. Police searched
his car, going through the trunk and looking under the seats.

"I remember how humiliating that was and how angry I was and the impact it had on me," Holder said during a private meeting
with about 50 community leaders at the Florissant campus of St. Louis Community College.

Holder also met with federal officials investigating Michael Brown's Aug. 9 death and with Brown's parents.

While living in the Georgetown neighborhood of Washington, Holder was once running to catch a movie with his cousin when a
squad car rolled up and flashed its lights at the pair. The officer yelled, "Where are you going? Hold it!" Holder recalled.

His cousin "started mouthing off," and Holder urged him to be quiet.

"We negotiate the whole thing, and we walk to our movie. At the time that he stopped me, I was a federal prosecutor. I wasn't
a kid," he said.

Holder also met briefly with Missouri State Highway Patrol Capt. Ron Johnson, who has been in charge of security in the community
for nearly a week since relieving Ferguson police. The National Guard has also been called in to help keep the peace.

In nearby Clayton, a grand jury began hearing evidence to determine whether the officer, Darren Wilson, should be charged
in Brown's death.

A spokesman for St. Louis County Prosecutor Bob McCulloch said there was no timeline for the process, but it could take weeks.

At the college, Holder told his audience that the most experienced agents and prosecutors would be assigned to the Ferguson
investigation.

Outside the St. Louis County Justice Center in Clayton, where the grand jury convened, two dozen protesters gathered in a
circle for a prayer, chanted and held signs urging McCulloch to step aside.

McCulloch's deep family connections to police have been cited by some black leaders who question his ability to be impartial
in the case. McCulloch's father, mother, brother, uncle and cousin all worked for the St. Louis Police Department, and his
father was killed while responding to a call involving a black suspect.

The prosecutor, who is white, has insisted his background will have no bearing on the handling of the Brown case, which has
touched off days of nighttime protests during which authorities used tear gas and rubber bullets to clear the streets.

Some protesters returned to the streets Wednesday evening but in diminishing numbers. They marched around a single block as
a thunderstorm filled the sky with lighting and dumped rain. Police still stood guard, but many wore regular uniforms rather
than riot gear.

In a letter published in the St. Louis Post-Dispatch, Holder promised a thorough investigation while calling for an end to
the violence in Ferguson. He said the bond of trust between law enforcement and the public is "all-important" but also "fragile."
